But who will take his place? Well, peeps, one day an email popped up in my inbox introducing me to a new contender for Supremely Hot Romance Cover Super-model. He is Greek and his name is Grigoris Drakackis – and he is every paranormal author’s dream come true.

Well, on the cover of a romance novel at least. Here’s what he had to say to us at Lady Smut.

GORGEOUS SUPER ROMANCE MODEL GRIGORIS DRAKAKIS: My name is Grigoris and I am from Lavrio, Greece.

(In case you don’t know, readers—Lavrio is a sunny port city –bustling with men who work on the docks ships, covered in sweat, muscles bulging.)

GORGEOUS SUPER ROMANCE MODEL GRIGORIS DRAKAKIS: But I also travel to the US as well to visit friends.

MADELINE IVA: Do you enjoy being every paranormal reader’s fantasy of a dark, brooding hero?

GORGEOUS SUPER ROMANCE MODEL GRIGORIS DRAKAKIS: My look of course helps open new opportunities in modeling but most important is personality and character. I believe this is the key for success!!!

MADELINE IVA: What are some of the ‘rules’ you’ve learned when it comes to modeling with women at a shoot?

GORGEOUS SUPER ROMANCE MODEL GRIGORIS DRAKAKIS: It is very important to have respect with a woman at a shoot and to make her feel at ease to have a successful result.

MADELINE IVA: What is involved in creating a successful romantic clinch?

GORGEOUS SUPER ROMANCE MODEL GRIGORIS DRAKAKIS: Of course chemistry is very important and a must for best results…Most of all it is what you emanate…

MADELINE IVA: How is modeling in America different from modeling in other places you’ve worked?

GORGEOUS SUPER ROMANCE MODEL GRIGORIS DRAKAKIS: Modeling in the US is very different because it is very advanced.

Grigoris also likes going to the gym and working with weights, (not surprising, right?) catching a movie now and then, and listening to music. And he has a dog.

MADELINE IVA: Thanks for stopping by Grigoris! We wish you the best of luck in L.A. and hope you are plastered all over hot romance covers across the land. And don’t forget to enter our Goodreads giveaway for a free print copy of our Lady Smut anthology. Today’s the final day of the Giveaway!
